Current data of targeted therapies for the treatment of triple-negative advanced breast cancer: empiricism or evidence-based
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 09/21/09
Petrelli F et al. – The clinical trials investigating new agents have to be designed for a specific subset of patients with BC. In the future, a gene array platform with greater sensitivity for distinguishing the various BC subtypes, as well as having the power to predict the molecular biology of the disease, will be an indispensible tool for treatment selection. Currently, treatment of TN BC is more empirical than evidence–based. The cornerstone of treatment is chemotherapy, but in the near future, novel target agents will emerge as possible partners.
